Hi, I’m a Computer Science teacher in the northeast US and I have put together a few Game Lab projects to demonstrate some of the capabilities that aren’t covered in the Discoveries curriculum. I hope they are useful! The last three are a little simpler and more “user-friendly.”

A simple light switch simulator to demonstrate the Boolean datatype and the NOT (!) operator:

How to use a Boolean to make an event, such as playing a sound, only happen one time even though it is in a loop:
